Accompanied by individual motifs of wild animals and birds. Polychrome overglaze painting with selective gold accents. Designed by Ludwig Zepner. Decor designed by Prof. Heinz Werner, circa 1973. Jug h. 17 cm.
Imaginative, cheerfully and amusingly composed decoration. With a broad, sweeping brushstroke, Prof. Heinz Werner arranges hunters and animals from spots and dots and also sets detailed accents of filigree strokes and gold highlights. The loosely arranged foliage forms reserves in which Werner arranges his compositions in a central position. In a modern interpretation, he thus draws on Meissen design principles of the 18th century.
